Jingle Bells & KPMG all the way (10th Term Meeting)

Taylor's University Toastmasters Club celebrated their 10th Meeting of the Term, and its the Holiday Season!


 .....well....soon for most of us...


                                 \

      *Cheer up Guys, save it for the weekdays...*

We had a JOINT Meeting with KPMG Toastmasters Club @ Bandar Utama, KPMG Tower on Saturday (8/12/2012). Far away from LT11 definitely.

Theme is "Be Thankful." and so the appreciative mood naturally sunk in.

Before the Meeting began, everyone was already acquainted with a series of introduction around the room.
